We try to keep our Midrange Magic+ playlist fresh. We also attempt to incorporate local taste, new music, newly re-released albums, and new gems we come across in our travels for each music seminar to share with each local audience when we bring the Midrange Magic+ Music Seminar across North America. Bookmark this page as we will be updating throughout the seminar series to make sharing easier.

Country Hits… Feelin’ Blue_Tennessee Ernie Ford
Caravelle_Polo & Pan, Caravelle tells the story of Alexandre Grynszpan and Paul Armand-Delilleas as they distill dance music, electronic, pop & world music into the most irresistible, timeless pop music. OK, its not a sonic masterpiece, but musically its terrific & bound to create an instant party. #3. Canoppée, #4. Coeur croisé #6. Naña #10. Mexicali Sorry, the LP is hard to find, but the source of countless hours of pleasure.
Isabeau Coriveau – A Leap Of Faith, This beautiful lady is a harpist, flautist, composer with a rarely used gorgeous voice, sung in unison. Her music style is Irish & British folk music but tastefully updated. Her seven-piece band play interesting & fresh arrangements of well-known folk songs. We used #6. “Blackbird” on Demo XXII and also play #2. “Scarborough Fair” at many HiFi Shows & Dealer Events; it’s seen through the eyes of the female lover for a nice change. Isabeau is a wonderful singer, her voice beautifully equipped for folk and her harp is a welcome respite from the normal guitar.

Billie Eilish, “Lost Cause”, This album is noticabely better produced by brother Finneas & better performed, showing considerably more maturity than Billie’s earlier offferings. The most popular single on this album “Oxytocin” is memorable, but I prefer #3. “Billie Bossa Nova” – we compared the streamed version at the Montreal Show (Melco streamer into a Chord Hugo DAC) the digital sounded clear & crisp but the LP had the emotion that the digital lacked, no surprise. But #7. “Lost Cause” is sufficient reason to buy the album alone. With a gorgeous, rich synth bass laying down the foundation, and various synths tastefully played from Happier Than Ever
